Gig Harbor Police Say They'll Be On The Water This Weekend

Authorities will be looking for impaired boaters as part of a national Operation Dry Water effort.

If you're out on the water this weekend, expect to see Gig Harbor Police passing by on their own vessel.

The department issued the following notice on its Twitter page:

"GHPD Marine Patrol Officers will be out looking for impaired boaters this weekend as part of @OpDryWater. #OperationDryWater #BoatSafe"

Operation Dry Water, by the way, is a national campaign to reduce boating accidents and eliminate Boating Under the Influence. Click here for more information.
